Hi Venegreen,

Thanks for your reply. But last time you told me total took you 3 weeks from the day you step in the SS office. Now you said it's about 6 weeks? (1 month wait and 2 weeks for the card to arrive ) can you be more detailed? . When you werent in their system , they didnt give you a letter ask you to wait for 4-8 weeks for them to verify??
Also do you mind to share what state are you at?
Thanks a lot

Hi Venegreen,
Thanks for your reply. So total took you around 25 days to get it. mine is almost 1 month :( i wonder if i should go there again but i called the 800#, they said can take up to 6 weeks.
since you are in TX, i think that might be why. CA always slower than other states. I guess too many people. Did you get a letter before you got the card said they are gonna issue u the card?
 
They gave me a letter

I wnt Wednesday to the Phoenix, AZ office and they gave me a letter saying it takes two weeks. It was very quick for me but took like 30 minutes for my wife because the SSA officer mispelled her name and had to correct it and did not know how to do it. Anyway, we both got at the end letters saying we should get it in two weeks.
 
were you their system?

hi, were you in their system when you first go?
did the letter say they need to verify the place who issue your GC?
sounds like CA definitely take longer .
your input will be appreciated. thanks
 
I guess

I guess I was because the letter says I will get the card. It does not mention any additional verification. I went there almost 6 weeks after getting my GC so I assume my information was already in their system.
 
Got SSN cards yesterday

I got both cards for me and my wife yesterday. One more thing to check off the list.
 
If I have already had SSN before the GC, will I keep the same number after the GC, but a new card without the "invalid to work" annotation on it?
 
SSN-Related Issues

This is a useful forum. I hope people will continue to post forever helping a large number of people in the GC process.

I will applying for my I-1485/EAD next week.

Hi Gurus, I thought you receive the SSN card automatically, because you have applied for it on your DS230 forms. Do you have to apply again in person at the SS Office?:confused:
 
do we have to bring the old SS card to the office? Anything else should I bring ? Thanks guys
